The latest rumours surrounding the iPhone 17 Pro came as a surprise: analyst Ross Young initially claimed that the new device would get Face ID under the display, but later denied this information. According to him, Face ID under the screen is no longer planned for the iPhone 17 Pro, and this change will not affect even the Pro Max model.

Here's What We Know

For several years, users have been hoping for the emergence of this technology, but it never materialised. Young, who is known for his accurate predictions, previously confirmed that the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will have larger displays. Now, he notes that the probability of implementing Face ID under the display for the iPhone 17 Pro has decreased.

It is possible that the model will still have a front-facing camera in the hole, similar to modern Android smartphones. However, questions remain about the compatibility of the Dynamic Island feature with new technologies.

As the iPhone 17 is still a year away from release, the situation may change, and new rumours will help to clarify the situation.
